Which atom of the following to, {O, C, Li} is the most electronegative? a. C b. Li c. O d. They are all the same. What is the expected electron configuration for the ion As^3+? a. [Ar] 4s^2 3d^10 b. [Ar] 4s^2 3d^10 4p^3 c. [Ar] 3d^10 3p^1 d. [Ar] 4s^2 3d^10 4p^6 Which of the following is a correct description of lattice energy? a. The energy change that occurs when electrons are removed from a lattice. b. The energy change that occurs when a gas condenses to a liquid. c. The energy change that occurs when a liquid freezes. d. The energy change that occurs when an ionic solid is separated into its ions in the gas phase. e The lattice energy of substance is identical to the ionic bond energy determined from coulombs law.

Explanation / Answer

7)

As bond order decreases, bond becomes weaker and hence bond length increases

Answer: b

8)

MgS is formed by Mg2+ and s2-

a is correct

b is wrong because MgS is not a covalent compound

c is wrong as Mg must have +2 charge

d is wrong as Mg must have +2 charge

e is wrong as it is not showing electron in outermost shell of S

P forms 4 sigma bond and it does not have any lone pair

Hence P is sp3 hybridised

O forms 1 sigma bond and has 2 lone pairs.

So, O is sp2 hybridised
